ਪਉੜੀ ੫

paurree 5

ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਸੁਖ ਫਲੁ ਪਿਰਮ ਰਸੁ ਛਿਅ ਰਸ ਹੈਰਾਣਾ ।

guramukh sukh fal piram ras chhia ras hairaanaa |

Even the six tastes (satras) are full of wonder before the gurmukh’s delightful fruit in the form of elixir of love.

ਛਤੀਹ ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਤਰਸਦੇ ਵਿਸਮਾਦ ਵਿਡਾਣਾ ।

chhateeh amrit tarasade visamaad viddaanaa |

Thirty six types of repasts, getting aweful before its grandeur, crave for being equal to it.

ਨਿਝਰ ਧਾਰ ਹਜਾਰ ਹੋਇ ਭੈ ਚਕਿਤ ਭੁਲਾਣਾ ।

nijhar dhaar hajaar hoe bhai chakit bhulaanaa |

Even myriads of currents of delight flowing through the tenth gate become full of wonder and fear before it.

ਇੜਾ ਪਿੰਗੁਲਾ ਸੁਖਮਨਾ ਸੋਹੰ ਨ ਸਮਾਣਾ ।

eirraa pingulaa sukhamanaa sohan na samaanaa |

The taste of the recitation of Soham in the base of ira, pingala and susumna nerves is not equal to the taste of the elixir of love.

ਵੀਹ ਇਕੀਹ ਚੜਾਉ ਚੜਿ ਪਰਚਾ ਪਰਵਾਣਾ ।

veeh ikeeh charraau charr parachaa paravaanaa |

Going beyond the animate and inanimate i.e. the whole world, the consciousness is merged in the Lord.

ਪੀਤੈ ਬੋਲਿ ਨ ਹੰਘਈ ਆਖਾਣ ਵਖਾਣਾ ।੫।

peetai bol na hanghee aakhaan vakhaanaa |5|

Then the situation turns out to be such that as one cannot speak while drinking, the talk of drinking of the elixir of love becomes ineffable.
